      Same. It's annoying to have to click allow everytime.

                same issue here, with uTorrent, Nexus Mod Manager and Mod Organizer handlers.
                Opera won't save my preferences.
                System double checked for viruses and malwares. Fine.
                Permissions and access to drives and directories, fine.
                Everything was working fine, till I installed a new system from the scratch, Windows 10 fall creators update and latest Opera.
                HDD in AHCI mode (dumb me), no Intel RST runnning.
                Watching this topic and posting any new info I find.

                  I've updated today to Opera 51 and it's seems like the issue is fixed! I've tried to download some mods from Nexus and couple of magnet links from various trackers and it worked. Even after restart. But the handlers lists is always shows only default handlers for email links which is kinda strange.
